#MetsPlus360: Day 2 in Spring Training
I spent two days down in Spring Training last weekend, and, like it always is, it was a thrilling time. There is no other time one can pay $15 and sit five feet from the Mets bullpen, dugout or home plate. As I arrived into the ballpark, got my tickets, I was again waived through…
